Someone Really Needs To Tell This Hippo That Crocodiles Aren’t Toys

It’s no secret that crocodiles are extremely aggressive predators.

Their large jaws and general unpredictability are enough to make any animal think twice before picking a fight. However, this hippopotamus must not have gotten the memo about the dangers associated with getting too close to a hungry croc.

While observing animals in their natural habitat, National Geographic captured unbelievable footage of a hippo licking a crocodile. Shockingly, the predators didn’t really react, but you’ll still be cringing the whole time.

Well, you don’t see that every day. Dang.

It never ceases to amaze me when scientists capture unimaginable animal interactions on video. Share this with all the animal lovers in your life who will be just as fascinated by this as we are!
